The new twist is that this is just as much a Mexican story as an American story. Eugenio Derbez is Leonardo Montelongo, scion of a rich family and noted playboy. When he falls overboard of his yacht he washes up on shore and Kate (Anna Faris) takes him in as her imaginary husband to help her raise the kids and so she can study for her nursing exam.
Leo then has to learn some real work. The best part is him becoming part of the working group and getting accepted by the guys. The second best part is his scheming family, some of who want him back and some don't.
A fairly complex plot with a telenovela within a movie. Excellent Mexican actors and American Hispanic characters. Eva Longoria is a nice addition as the spark behind the prank.
